    Shave of the Week Starting 14 Jume 2021

    Gillette SuperSpeed razor (no date code)
    Gillette Silver Blue blade
    Maggard Purple Swirl brush
    Williams SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Assorted A/S


    Mighty fine shave with another razor I got from the Magical Touring Mystery Box recently. Had not tried this particular style before but what a wonderful/pleasant suprise. The Gillette x2 combo gave a smooth, comfortable and close shave with no problems at all. My face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks. [​IMG]

    GEMonday, June 14th 2021

    Razor: Gem Junior bar- Mfg 1907-11, excellent tame mid range razor, great carefree shave today, I get a lot of performance with a fairly new blade from this work of art razor. Good daily driver IMO.
    Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (2) Very sharp, good longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable blade.
    Soap: Razorock Santa Marie del Fiore, nice light Tabaco scent with vanilla scent + excellent lather conditions.
    Brush: Yaqi 24mm 2 band badger, excellent lather generator, pillow soft tips, great scrub + great lather painter. 24 mm is a good size knot or smaller for a badger, this brush is not a lather hog IMO.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar soap with a dollop of Clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Razorock Santa Marie del Fiore with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG]Excellent shave with my Gem Jr bar with a coated Gem blade.
